Ranked in these QuestionsQuestion Ranking

Pros

Pro

High video resolution

This camera uses a 4K lens, meaning that each eye in the 3D view will be 4K and will thus be high resolution.

Pro

3D video recording

Vuze Camera can record seamless panoramic 3D videos.

Pro

Suitable to those who are not tech savvy

The company asserts that it will provide an all-you-need VR Kit with a VR headset, a cam, a tripod, their software, and mobile app. The stitching software should be plug & play and usable even for those who are technologically inept.

Pro

Very easy to set up and use

Samsing Gear 360 is extremely easy to use. The software experience is excellent and intuitive with minimal (if any) bugs or issues. It's so easy that even an absolute beginner can use it without any problems.

Pro

Can connect and edit wirelessly

When connected to a Galaxy device, you can use the familiar Samsung camera apps with the same buttons and settings in the same places.

There are a few new buttons such as the one that lets you select which Gear 360 lens to use (front, back, or both), and another one for the live view.

Pro

No seam artifacts

Offers dual F2.0 lenses at 195° FOV each. The amount of overlap in theory should reduce seam artifacts (even if it isn't perfect) and the F2.0 aperture will make shooting in low-light a breeze.

Pro

Straightforward updating experience

Updating the firmware on the camera is pretty easy. You don't have to download a binary on your computer and transfer it to the camera or anything like that. Instead, it's all done through Wi-Fi directly from the camera itself.

Pro

Will feel very familiar for users who have used a Samsung mobile device in the past

The camera and sharing applications are very similar to Samsung's camera and gallery apps (with minor differences). Anyone who has used a Samsung mobile device in the past will find it very easy to get used to these apps as well.

Pro

Can shoot videos at 60 frames per second

There's an option to shoot 360-degree videos at 60 frames per second. Unfortunately, the resolution drops to 2560 x 1280 when you choose that option.

Cons

Con

Currently unavailable

Pre-orders are available, with shipping occurring in October 2016.

Con

Expensive in comparison to other 360 cameras

Though what is on offer is great (a complete 3D 4K camera with software, mounts, and a VR headset) its price is nonetheless quite high when compared to other 360 cameras. It will cost approximately $1,000. Other cameras may not be comparable in terms of features and accessories, but the price point is still quite high for those looking to get started with 360 cameras.

Con

Blatant image stitching

Virtually all photos and videos that have been published present blatantly poor stitching: it is clear to see where the images were taken and digitally stitched together.

Con

Only compatible with Samsung flagships

This camera can only be paired with the latest Samsung flagships which are S7, S7 edge, Note5, S6 edge plus, S6 edge, and S6.

Con

Soft focus or blur quality

Distant objects will be blurry in the final result, whether it is a still picture or a video.

Con

Difficult to carry around

While most 360-degree cameras are small enough to fit inside a pocket, it is not the case for the Samsung Gear 360. The round shape makes it uncomfortable to fit inside a pocket and you need a bag to carry it around.

Con

Video not stitched in camera

Better cameras give you finished video, ready to use. Samsung's need post processing to render viewable 360 video. Not only inconvenient, but a very slow process and subpar results with very raw stitching.
